Oren and Bennet (2022) is the artist's first-ever series of its kind and closely follows his 2021 solo exhibition Give Me Love at Victoria Miro in London. Doron Langberg is hailed by critics for his prominent voice and idiosyncratic approach to figuration. Langberg’s paintings are known for their luminous colors, fluid gestures, and intimate subjects that together bridge the legacies of painters such as Pierre Bonnard and Edouard Vuillard with contemporary depictions of queer culture.
Hand-painted with energetic brushstrokes and
splatters of acrylic, this new body of work beckons empathy through our
sense of touch, introducing humanity and intimacy to themes of queer
sensuality.
Langberg is considered one of the vanguard artists working in his field today, among peers such as Jennifer Packer, Louis Fratino, and Salman Toor. Working directly from life, the artist draws much of his inspiration from a personal constellation of family, friends, and lovers.
